The sativa originated in Mexico, Colombia, and Southeast Asia, all of which having warm climates, in which the plant thrives in. With the jovial feeling that it produced, it rose in popularity.

During the flowering period, sativas emit a rather muted yet sweet aroma. Its fragrance is refreshing, even triggering a smoker’s craving for the herb. The flavors of sativas are a bit more reserved as compared to indicas. They could either come as sweet or fruity, depending on the breed or if the plant was crossbred with other strains.
